Help with this one if possible. I was upgraded to Diamond in March 2018 with the status earned until March 2020 and was sent an email confirming this. In December I was downgraded to Gold: which is not unreasonable as we have not had a lot of stays in 2018. However, we are doing more and International travel in 2019 and the Diamond would be very welcome.

HH are about to sign on a property to return the Hilton brand to MEL. An existing property in the vicinity of King St.

There are also plans to have a Canopy/Curio/Tapestry (I can't remember which) brand in the city as well. This may be a new building.

Both property openings may be up to 2 years away.

I hope to get confirmation in the next week.]]>78Hilton HonorsSat, 19 Jan 2019 19:53:48 +0000https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/hilton-honors.78933/

Apparently it's a system glitch and accounts are randomly being downgraded.

I have some upcoming stays in Hilton that I want to take advantage of but it will be touch and go whether I can complete 8 within 90 days so I'm trying to get as much breathing room as possible.

I am at about T-9 from the first stay. Has anyone had recent experiences with how long it takes to match with this site?]]>4Mac bank Hilton Hhonors credit card questionMon, 26 Nov 2018 11:29:20 +0000https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/mac-bank-hilton-hhonors-credit-card-question.78316/

I have had the card since July last yr and obtained Hilton Hhonors Diamond status in Dec Last yr
after spending $40000 on the card

I would like to maintain that status - does that mean I have to spend another $40000 on the card before DEC this year ?

Good news is it will have a lounge.]]>2Hilton Points to expire.....Mon, 19 Nov 2018 11:49:18 +0000https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/hilton-points-to-expire.91571/
